Project description:Ultraviolet C radiation (UVC) damages the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes; this damage is repaired in the nuclear but not mitochondrial genome. Ethidium bromide (EtBr) inhibits mitochondrial DNA replication. We were interested in the transcriptomic response to exposure to UVC, EtBr, and the combination. The UVC exposure protocol results in a high level of mitochondrial DNA damage, and a low level of nuclear DNA damage (because of repair). We exposed age-matched L1-stage Caenorhabditis elegans to ultraviolet C radiation (UVC ) three times, separated in time by 24 h, in the absence of food. After the third exposure, larvae were placed on K agar plates with OP50 bacterial food. In some cases ethidium bromide was also used. Nematodes were sampled for RNA isolation several times.

Project description:Damage to the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) severely affects the cell and causes disease. Mutations to mtDNA also accumulate throughout the lifespan of many organisms and may be a proximal cause of aging. There is no effective treatment for ailments caused by mtDNA mutation. Since mitochondrial function and biogenesis are controlled by the nutrient environment of the cell, it is possible that perturbation of conserved, nutrient-sensing pathways may successfully treat mitochondrial disease. Experiments using the tractable eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae allow us to investigate the connection between nutrient-sensing and mitochondrial function. We have focused our current studies on the protein kinase A (PKA) pathway, which controls S. cerevisiae behavior according to glucose availability. We found that reduced PKA signaling can lead, in a background-dependent manner, to improved fitness after mtDNA loss. Specifically, over-expression of the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase Pde2p, removal of PKA isoform Tpk3p, or ablation of other proteins promoting PKA activity leads to improved proliferation of cells deleted of the mitochondrial genome. Over-expression of Pde2p also suppresses the inviability of several mutants that normally cannot survive mtDNA loss. Moreover, Pde2p over-expression diminishes the nuclear transcriptional response to mtDNA damage, further supporting the idea that glucose sensation is harmful for cells lacking the mitochondrial genome. These findings are heavily dependent upon yeast genetic background. Interestingly, robust import of mitochondrial polytopic membrane proteins may be required in order for cells with no mtDNA to receive the full benefits of PKA reduction. Our findings support the idea that perturbation of nutrient-sensing pathways, and specifically the sensation of glucose, may benefit cells with dysfunctional mitochondria. Four experimental conditions were used: BY4743 (WT) cells containing empty pRS426 vector and containing mtDNA because EtBr was not used, BY4743 (WT) cells containing empty pRS426 vector and lacking mtDNA after 24 hours of treatment with 25 µg/ml ethidium bromide, BY4743 (WT) cells overexpressing TIP41 from plasmid pRS426 and lacking mtDNA after 24 hours of treatment with 25 µg/ml ethidium bromide, and BY4743 (WT) cells overexpressing PDE2 from plasmid pRS426 and lacking mtDNA after 24 hours of treatment with 25 µg/ml ethidium bromide. Two replicates were performed for each sample type.

Project description:It has been reported that human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can transfer mitochondria to the cells with severely compromised mitochondrial function. We tested whether MSCs transfer mitochondria to the cells under several different conditions of mitochondrial dysfunction, including human pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. Using biochemical selection methods, we found that exponentially growing cells in restrictive media (uridine and bromodeoxyuridine [BrdU]+) after coculture of MSCs (uridine-independent and BrdU-sensitive) and 143B-derived cells with severe mitochondrial dysfunction induced by either long-term ethidium bromide treatment or short-term rhodamine 6G (R6G) treatment (uridine-dependent but BrdU-resistant). The exponentially growing cells had nuclear DNA fingerprint patterns identical to 143B, and a sequence of mtDNA identical to the MSCs. Since R6G causes rapid and irreversible damage to mitochondria without the removal of mtDNA, the mitochondrial function appears to be restored through a direct transfer of mitochondria rather than mtDNA alone. Conditioned media, which were prepared by treating mtDNA-less 143B 0 cells under uridine-free condition, induced increased chemotaxis in MSC, which was also supported by transcriptome analysis. A chemotaxis inhibitory agent blocked mitochondrial transfer phenomenon in the above condition. However, we could not find any evidence of mitochondrial transfer to the cells harboring human pathogenic mtDNA mutations (A3243G mutation or 4,977 bp deletion). Thus, the mitochondrial transfer is limited to the condition of a near total absence of mitochondrial function. Elucidation of the mechanism of mitochondrial transfer will help us create a potential “cell therapy-based mitochondrial restoration or mitochondrial gene therapy” for human diseases caused by mitochondrial dysfunction. time series

Project description:To identify mitochondrial RNA-interacting proteins, we developed three related mass spectrometry based methods. In the first method, called mitochondrial crosslinking (MXL), mitochondria of 4-thiouridine labelled cells were isolated, exposed to UV-light and poly(A) RNA was isolated. In the second method, called whole cell crosslinking (WCXL), 4-thiouridine labelled cells were first exposed to UV-light, subsequently mitochondria were isolated followed by a poly(A) RNA extraction. The third method, called ethidium bromide whole cell crosslinking (WCXL_EtBr), is exactly the same as the WCXL method, but the cells are cultured with ethidium bromide to reduce the amount of mitochondrial RNA. In all methods poly(A) RNA was degraded and proteins in the sample were digested and identified using mass spectrometry.

Project description:We have looked at the transcriptional response of well characterised Synechococcus open ocean (WH8102) and coastal (CC9311) isolates to two DNA damaging agents, mitomycin C and ethidium bromide, using whole genome expression microarrays. The coastal strain, which was able to grow on higher concentrations of both chemicals, showed differential regulation of a larger proportion of its genome following ‘toxic shock’ treatment with each agent. Many of the orthologous genes in these strains, including those encoding sensor kinases, showed different transcriptional responses, with the CC9311 genes more likely to show significant changes for each tested treatment. While the overall response of each strain was considerably different, there were distinct transcriptional responses common to both strains observed for each DNA damaging agent, linked to the mode of action of each chemical. In both CC9311 and WH8102 there was evidence of SOS response induction under mitomycin C treatment, with genes encoding recA, the lexA repressor and umuC significantly upregulated in this experiment but not under ethidium bromide treatment. Conversely, ethidium bromide treatment tended to result in upregulation of the DNA-directed RNA polymerase genes, not observed following mitomycin C treatment. Interestingly, a large number of genes residing on putative genomic island regions of each genome also showed significant upregulation under one or both chemical treatments.

Interestingly, a large number of genes residing on putative genomic island regions of each genome also showed significant upregulation under one or both chemical treatments. In this series four conditions have been analyzed. These are 2 hour incubations (shock treatment) with ethidium bromide (EB, final conc 2ug/mL) and mitomycin C (MC, final conc 0.5 ug/mL) for Synechococcus sp. WH8102 and CC9311. For each slide, an experimental RNA sample was labeled with Cy3 or Cy5 and was hybridized with a reference RNA from a control sample (no addition of chemical agent) labeled with the other Cy dye. There are six slides per condition, each with at least two biological replicates and three technical replicates, including at least one flip-dye comparison. Each slide contains six replicate spots per gene.

Project description:Here we aimed to improve native gel electrophoresis-based complexome profiling (CP) method for examination of mitochondrial (mt)DNA-/RNA-protein complexes. We compared the performance of Blue Native PAGE (BNE) and high resolution Clear Native PAGE (hrCNE). We found that hrCNE much better preserves the integrity of mtDNA-/RNA-protein complexes.To further improve the detection of mtDNA-binding proteins, we treated solubilized mitochondrial samples with DNase I prior to separation on hrCNE or BNE. To characterize the detected by hrCNE mtRNA-protein complexes, we performed CP with samples treated with RNase A. To validate the utility of the method, we performed CP using mitochondria isolated from cells treated with ethidium bromide as well as from cells recovering after this treatment. Our study not only helps to validate and unveil proteins involved in mitochondrial DNA- and RNA-related processes, but also offers a convenient and systematic way for analysing these interactions that can be used equally well for the investigation of the nucleus and other DNA-/RNA-containing cell compartments.

Project description:DNA damage caused by UV radiation initiates cellular recovery mechanisms, which involve activation of DNA damage response pathways, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. To assess cellular transcriptional responses to UVC-induced DNA damage we compared time course responses of human skin fibroblasts to low and high doses of UVC radiation known to induce a transient cellular replicative arrest or apoptosis, respectively. UVC radiation elicited >3-fold changes in 460 out of 12,000 transcripts and 89% of these represented downregulated transcripts. Only 5% of the regulated genes were common to both low and high doses of radiation. Cells inflicted with a low dose of UVC exhibited transcription profiles demonstrating transient regulation followed by recovery, whereas the responses were persistent after the high dose. A detailed clustering analysis and functional classification of the targets implied regulation of biologically divergent responses and suggested involvement of transcriptional and translational machinery, inflammatory, anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic responses. The data support the notion that UVC radiation induces prominent, dose-dependent downregulation of transcription. However, the data strongly suggest that transcriptional repression is also target gene selective. Furthermore, the results demonstrate that dose-dependent induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by UVC radiation are transcriptionally highly distinct responses. Keywords: other
